Our extensive training ensures that our healthcare cleaning services exceed the specialized cleaning services your medical facility needs. We can help control the spread of infectious disease and minimize cross-contamination by following universal precautions and industry best practices.

Customized Healthcare Cleaning Services

While many of the regulations surrounding healthcare cleaning are the same, we recognize that no two healthcare/medical facilities have the exact same needs. We’ll work with you to develop a comprehensive, fully customized cleaning procedure and schedule that meets your facility’s needs and goes above and beyond your expectations. Our healthcare cleaning crews are available 24/7 to ensure your medical facility is always clean. Many medical facilities prefer we clean at night, after the last patient has gone for the day. We can also be discreet with our cleaning during daytime hours. It’s all based on what your facility needs.

You focus on your patients’ health, and we’ll focus on the clean. At ServiceMaster Clean PBM, we’ll ensure reception areas, patient exam rooms, resident rooms, common areas, and restrooms are all properly cleaned and sanitized. We are happy to supply you with local references.
